I gotta stop going into media where the trope is “Grumpy old man adopts a little girl and she makes him happier” and think I’m not gonna cry

Why you should watch "The Deer King" (2021)
It's beautiful
He's not emphasized well in the marketing because most of it is Van and Yuna, but the actual deuteragonist of the film is Dr. Hohsalle, and he's beautiful. Imagine Xie Lian but he's a doctor. This isn't subtext, in the books the narrative switches POVs between them (well between Van, Makokan, and Hohsalle). Van and Yuna's relationship is still important obviously, but it kind of took over the marketing entirely for whatever reason (I think because they sort of animated a book illustration featuring them). DO NOT BE FOOLED
The music is a bit random but lovely. The credits song destroyed me.
It's kind of like Princess Mononoke in a lot of ways but more focused on lots of pyuika (flying deer), rebellion, and dealing with a disease outbreak. Still important themes of found families, imperialism, assimilation, and erasure of local beliefs and groups. Also if you like Sword of the Stranger, this is kind of that but with deer and wolves instead of swords and a Shiba Inu.
Did I mention Hohsalle I don't think I mentioned Hohsalle (here's some GIFs because I don't think I mentioned him)
Did you like Seirei no Moribito? Uehashi Nahoko, the same person who wrote that, wrote this (well the books it's based on), and it's pretty similar, just with a dad and a daughter this time, and a higher budget. Epic fantasy films based on books written by women 11/10.

Seriously he's right there imagine I'm Kuzco circling him a lot
It's really a very pretty film and a good time. The fight scenes are great.
How many epic fantasy films do you know that star hot doctors
Spoilers under the cut
Seriously it's gay AF please watch

January 1st, 2024
The first movie of the year is The Deer King (2021). It has absolutely nothing to do with the holiday, I just felt like I was in the mood for a fairy tale and this definitely scratched that itch. This movie is visually stunning and a unique entry into the “grumpy warrior’s heart is softened by the orphan that fate kind of throws at him” subgenre. While watching it I realized this is the first non Ghibli Japanese animated feature I’ve watched and I would like to add to that list over the coming year.

Anime I Watched in 2022: Part 3
21. Summertime Rendering 1,000,000/10
Anime of the year award goes to this masterpiece. This show was so severely overlooked that it should be considered a crime against humanity. This was the best time travel anime I’ve ever watched. The MC was so incredibly smart that it was such a breath of fresh air. Every time you think you understand the plot BAM something unexpected happens. Folks if you haven’t watched this as yet please, please, please give it a watch.
Tumblr media
22. The Deer King 4/5
I know a lot of people said that this plot was predictable and the movie was bland but I absolutely loved it. The characters were so endearing that you just fell in love. The animation was stunning and the soundtrack was lovely. Also that doctor looked so much like Xie Lian that I almost cried.
Tumblr media
23. Cyberpunk Edgerunners 3.5/5
Urghhh. *SPOILERS AHEAD* Everyone loved it. I wanted to love it. The problem was he was warned so many times about overusing his equipment to the point where I knew he wasn’t to live at the end. Even the communication between him and Lucy was so painful to watch. Their story could’ve gone so much better if they’d only communicated with each other. Props to the studio for the top class animation as well as a killer soundtrack but even that wasn’t enough to make me like this series.
Tumblr media
24. Magi 4/5
This one has nostalgia all over it. It reminded me of the anime I looked at when I just got into anime. The characters were all so well done and the development was perfect. The plot was somewhat predictable but again nostalgia made up for it. I heard the manga gets better so I’ll definitely check that out
Tumblr media
25. Cautious Hero 5/5
This is a perfect example of how to do a comedy anime right. You never knew where the plot was heading. The comedic timing of the FMC was just right and the jokes never got repetitive or tiresome. When you think it’s just comedy the tragic plot slaps you in the face bring you back to reality that the world is a cold dead place. But seriously everyone should watch this to understand how a comedy anime should be done.
Tumblr media
26. The Yakuza’s Guide to Babysitting 5/5
Ahhhh this was just kawaii!!!! No more explanation needed. Just a dangerously hot guy Babysitting his boss’s daughter. Folks enjoy!
Tumblr media
27. Yuri on Ice infinity/10
This show called me single, sad and lonely in so many different languages. I went into this one completely blind and I was hooked from the intro. I’m not kidding, when I saw the intro for the first time I burst into tears; don’t ask me why and don’t get me started about the ending. The animation in this was smooth, the storyline: gripping, the romance: superb. I heard a movie is in the works so I’m absolutely looking forward to that
Tumblr media
28. Is It Wrong To Pick Up Girls In A Dungeon 4/5
This is where I’m reminded of my mother’s words of don’t judge a book by its cover or in this case an anime by its name. This kept showing up as a recommended for me to watch but I kept ignoring it until boredom got the best of me. While the plot was not perfect, the animation, ost and characters made up for it.
Tumblr media
29. Romantic Killer 5/5
When I tell you that I laughed out loud with this one I sincerely mean it. Holy shit this one caught me off guard. I think this was probably the only anime I binged in one sitting; it was that good. A lot of critics said the plot was predictable but nuts to them because I had no idea what was going on. I was too busy trying to get oxygen back to my brain from laughing so much. My favorite thing about this show was that there was absolutely no ecchi scenes! Just a regular high school girl trying to live her regular reclusive life.
Tumblr media
30. Raven of the Inner Place 5/5
I don’t know what drew me into giving this one a chance but whatever it was I’d like to thank them. This was another hidden gem for this year. A mysterious plot, intriguing characters, LOTS of angst, combined with a touch of barely there romance made a crave for more each week. I really, really hope we get another season because it’s cruel to end it where they did.
